The Scroll of Esther, popularly known as the ‘Megillah’, or Purim Story, is at once a saga of humanity’s finest and basest elements, and the story of a holocaust that almost happened, yet, unlike its contemporary counterpart, ended in the miraculous salvation of the Jewish people. But beyond all of that, Megillat Esther is a timeless spiritual guidebook for the Jewish nation, and for every individual, revealing the secret of how to tap into the ultimate power of Divine miracle to survive and thrive despite even the most desperate challenges.
In this groundbreaking work, the Nezer HaKodesh (“Crown of Glory”) commentary, Rabbi Zamir Cohen unlocks the Megillah’s hidden depths, weaving classic Jewish Biblical, Talmudic, and Kabbalistic sources into an authentic and relevant commentary beneficial for both the seasoned scholar and the curious newcomer to Jewish wisdom. In addition, this volume includes a fascinating analysis of modern archeological and scientific research that uncannily confirms the ancient text’s historical authenticity, as well as practical guidelines on how to reap the spiritual harvest of the joyous Purim holiday.
